If anyone is going to write about the latest Israel/variant study, I suggest noting: this informative thread by one of the co-authors; that it's actually excellent news; and that vaccine resistance is NOT analogous to antibiotic resistance (which seems to be a common conflation). https://twitter.com/SternLab/status/1380922920734711811

I've already been sent an alarming headline by a respectable organization, and see below. A co-author is on Twitter explaining it it, folks! Come on. FWIW, the study itself made me feel *better* about both the mRNA vaccines and the threat of B.1.351 (which we should track).

Here's a better headline, adding that the findings about vaccine breakthroughs (which we already knew would happen (duh!) about and should track by sequencing) are turning out to be really encouraging so far. https://twitter.com/notdred/status/1381297853855891462
